For other bosses in Ulduar, check the Ulduar Healing strategy page . Here’s a rather unconventional approach to killing Ignis which utilizes the side of the instance. Using this method does appear to be rather cheesy, but it takes a lot of pressure off many players. Credit this to Kimbo for figuring this out. Ignis is one of the early optional bosses you’ll encounter first in Ulduar. I recommend working on Razorscale first before doubling back to the Furnace Master. Quick notes Standard tank and spank Periodic Constructs will activate Abilities Scorch – All enemies in front of Ignis will take quick dot damage for 3 seconds (ticks every half-a-second). Constructs within the area will start to heat up and become Molten . Flame Jets – Geysers of flame shoot up from the ground and throw raid members up into the air. If the Flame Jets connect while a player is casting, they’ll be interrupted for 8 seconds . Targets take fire damage over 8 seconds. Slag Pot – Ignis will charge a player and grab them tossing them into his Slag Pot (the pot hanging around his waist). Activate Construct – Activates a Construct with 3.8 million health. Strength of the Creator – When a Construct is active, damage done by Ignis is increased by 15%. It’s a stacking buff. When a Construct is taken out, the stack is removed.
